Be the Hero Or Heroine of Your Life

BE YOUR HERO OR HEROINE OF YOUR LIFE



Be the hero or heroine of your life, what is stopping you from being proud of yourself? 
First you need to love yourself, no I mean really love yourself!
Does that sound crazy? Who loves themselves? The people who are proud! The people who use
their imagination, set themselves a goal on something they would love to achieve, put a
100% into it and never give up until they have reached that goal! These are the people who
succeed in life, the ones who have faith in themselves!.
Those who act on positive thoughts are sending out and receiving back positive
vibrations’, attracting all their desires. In exactly the same way, those thinking in a
negative frame of mind are attracting negativity towards them.
Does that ring home true to you? Look back at your life and remember when you were feeling
great, one great thing after the other, on an upward spiral, and then BOOM! Something
happens that slaps you in the face and down you go, negativity say hello!
You, me, everyone, we are all the same, we all  have the power in us to reach our goals,
live our dreams, it all depends in which frame of mind we choose to be in, and to believe
in ourselves.
You see, life is all about choices, all we have to do is to make that choice, act upon
great thoughts, not to fall down when things go wrong, after all, as Mickey Rooney once
said, “You always pass failure on the way to success!
Be the hero or Heroine of your life, be Proud!
                                                        

                                                                              Simone Segal

Thanks for this Simone. I'm going to print this one out. I'm becoming the heroine of my life. Forgot to do that being a wife and mom. Thank you deeply for this piece.

Great write my friend. Beautiful inspirational words to change the course of one’s life. You are absolutely right. It’s a very uplift thoughts you have penned here, showing a ray of hope for those who are surrounded with gloominess and sadness. A beauty in words to be translated in life. A gem of a poem and thoughts you have given to PS. Many thanks for your ever beautiful comments on Sounds of Summer. Hope you would like Patradoot series also. Love and best wishes....Ravindra....

Simone, this is so inspiring, and I agree with every word. One must love themselves first, absolutely. Now, I see you have selected, I Do Not Know as your form. The form you are writing in is narrative, you are telling us a story. And thank you, for your comment on my poem, My Here and Now, about the love I have for Henri... love constance

This is the kind of work that a lot of people would find inspiring, in the sense that it engenders confidence by a philosophy of self-acceptance. J P Sartre would have loved this :)
